    Required Materials

    ·         Standard of Excellence Book #1 (red book). Make sure to buy the book specific to your child’s instrument. Percussionists need the “Drums & Mallets” book.

    ·         Instrument - I highly suggest renting an instrument, instead of buying it. If you want to purchase an instrument, click HERE for a list of good instrument brands. You can rent an instrument and purchase the book at any of the following locations:

    o   EDH Music (El Dorado Hills)

    o   Nicholson’s Music (Folsom)

    o   The Music Yard (Rocklin)

    o   Tim’s Music (Carmichael)

    o   Kline Music (Sacramento)
